Program features include:

Referrals come directly from the State of Missouri when children have experienced abuse or neglect.

The program matches foster children with permanent homes through adoption or by reunifying families through focused support.

The Children’s Permanency Partnership (CPP) provides training and assessment for individuals, couples, and families who have room in their homes, lives, and hearts for a child or youth.

Epworth’s Foster Care Services reach beyond placement. We provide assurances of safety and facilitate a relationship between the biological and foster families, providing the greatest support for children and youth.

If you have a concern for the abuse or neglect of a child or youth, please call the Missouri Department of Social Services at 1-800-392-3738.
